Moneyball

Besides the fact that the always good-looking Brad Pitt is in the movie Moneyball, I recommend seeing the movie. Last night as I was laying on my couch with no other sports to watch since hockey is on hold till Wednesday I decided to watch the popular movie.

Although their is some math involved in the movie, it is not as dreadful as it would seem. I actually enjoyed the film very much and strongly recommend it for baseball fans.

Happy Days! xoxo

I'll Have Another again

They've done it again and are planning to go for three. The famous horse, I'll Have Another, and his rider Doug O'Neill won the Preakness Steak this past Saturday. It looked as though they may not win but pulled it out in the last few yards.

Happy Days! xoxo

Mets or Yankees?

Who is the better New York baseball team? Right now it seems to be the Mets but that could always change. The Yankees, who just lost their third in a row, have started out their 2012 season a bit slow. The Mets have a record of 21-17 and the Yankees 20-18. It may not seem like that much of a difference but the Mets seem to be prevailing all around.

Happy Days! xoxo

Beckham and the 2012 Olympics

It's no secret that David Beckham has been known to bring large crowds to a stadium but Beckham doesn't want to be known as a player who solely gets the crowd there because of his celeb-status. The English soccer player has been known to play on some big name teams and wants to be noticed for the 2012 London Olympics because of his skills.
